Earlier, Azerbaijani Economy and Industry Minister Shahin Mustafayev said export of agricultural products from Azerbaijan to Russia doubled in the first six months of 2014.

However, Baku rejects any report that all agricultural products produced in Azerbaijan are supplied to the Russian market.

Expansion of export to Russia psychologically influenced the prices inside Azerbaijan. But the trend lost its force in late August.

Moreover, the ministry said that the current price level is not affecting the interests of consumers, because it corresponds to the level set in the same period last year.

Early in this season, the prices of basic fruits and vegetables in the country were significantly lower than last year. For example, in July compared with the same period in 2013, cabbages prices fell by 25 percent, onions - by 21 percent, garlic - 15 percent, cucumbers - 13 percent, apples - 21 percent, strawberries - 12 percent, plums - 10 percent.

"Overall, the price index of fruits and vegetables producers was lower by 4-5 percent. In short, the prices set at the beginning of the season were quite unfavorable for agricultural producers in comparison with the same period last year," the ministry summarized.
